Standard dosing for HU is usually one per day. It takes a few weeks for your body to adjust. Don’t expect overnight miracles. Diet and exercise always have a positive effect, so stay with the program. I’m 88 and I’m living my life. Essential thrombocytopenia is just a minor inconvenience as far as I’m concerned. Good luck in the future.
